The Padres are coming for the Dodgers.

San Diego completed the sweep over Seattle with an 8-3 win behind a monster night from Gavin Sheets, who blasted TWO home runs and drove in four runs. Lucas Giolito won his Padres debut, Ty France delivered clutch RBIs, and the Padres bullpen locked things down after a tense sixth inning.

Now? The Padres head home only HALF A GAME behind the Dodgers for one of the biggest series of the season so far at Petco Park.

The Padres take Game 2 in Seattle 7-4 behind massive home runs from Gavin Sheets, Nick Castellanos and Rafael Duran! Walker Buehler battled through five innings while the bullpen nearly let things spiral in the 8th before San Diego escaped with the win. Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber breaks down the Padres’ offensive explosion, the scary late inning drama, Merrill’s struggles, Fernando Tatis Jr. getting caught stealing, and why the bottom of the lineup carried this team tonight.

The Padres shut out the Mariners 2-0 in Seattle behind SIX dominant innings from Randy Vasquez and another insane, stress-filled finish from Mason Miller.

Vasquez gave the Padres exactly what they needed:

6 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 0 BB.

Then Mason Miller entered with the bases loaded in the 8th and turned into a complete psychopath on the mound, striking out Connor Joe before surviving another dangerous 9th inning for a four-out save.

But the story AGAIN?

The Padres offense disappearing in massive situations.

Javier Reyes recaps Griffin Canning getting blown up,  (surprise!) more offensive woes, debates whether or not its fair to blame hitting coaches, and looks ahead to the Mariners. Go Padres.

The Padres dropped the rubber match in Milwaukee 7-1 after Griffin Canning and the back end of the rotation got buried early by the Brewers offense. Milwaukee scored three in the 1st inning and never looked back as San Diego’s offense once again struggled badly against left-handed pitching.

Kyle Harrison and the Brewers bullpen dominated the Padres lineup most of the day while San Diego struck out repeatedly and failed to capitalize after wasting a huge scoring chance in the top of the 1st inning.

Michael King deserved better AGAIN tonight after another dominant outing, while Milwaukee pitching retired 19 straight Padres hitters before the late-game chaos exploded. Then came Andujar’s hit, Bogaerts’ walk, and the swing that changed everything.

What a win for the Padres.

The Padres somehow split this brutal four-game series against the Cardinals despite tying the franchise record for FEWEST hits in a four-game series with only 15 total hits… and they STILL found a way to win.

Nick Castellanos delivered a MASSIVE game-tying home run in the bottom of the 9th after the Padres had only two hits all game, and then Manny Machado played hero in the 10th with the walk-off sacrifice fly on Mother’s Day at Petco Park.

The Padres bounced back Saturday night at Petco Park with a HUGE 4-2 win over the red-hot St. Louis Cardinals in another game that felt like playoff baseball in May. Manny Machado made history tonight, blasting his 250th career home run as a Padre and the 375th homer of his incredible MLB career in a massive moment for San Diego. Randy Vásquez battled through traffic, the bullpen delivered huge outs, and Mason Miller survived absolute CHAOS in the 9th inning before slamming the door with triple-digit gas and electric strikeout stuff.

The Padres had all the momentum coming into this series after scoring 15 runs in two games against the Giants… and then the offense disappeared AGAIN.

Michael King was outstanding, striking out hitters all night and giving San Diego another quality outing from the rotation, but the Padres could only scratch across ONE RUN before the bats completely shut down against Matthew Liberatore and the Cardinals bullpen.

The Padres’ late push wasn’t enough as they fall 3-2 to the Giants in San Francisco to open the series.

After being shut down most of the night by 25-year-old Trevor McDonald — who went 7 innings, allowed just 1 run on 2 hits, and struck out 8 — the Padres finally showed life in the 9th inning. Ramon Laureano crushed a 447-foot home run to left-center to cut the deficit to one and snap a brutal stretch of 18 consecutive batters retired.

But with momentum in their favor, the Padres couldn’t finish it. Fernando Tatis Jr. struck o...

The Padres grind out a MASSIVE win in the series finale, using elite baserunning and late-game execution to avoid the sweep against the White Sox.

After back-to-back home runs from Manny Machado and Miguel Andújar gave San Diego an early lead, the game flipped when Adrián Morejón allowed a two-run pinch-hit homer to Derek Hill, tying things up and shifting momentum.

But the Padres answered in the biggest moment of the game.

San Diego Padres fall 4-0 to the Chicago White Sox in a game defined by missed opportunities and an ice-cold lineup.

The turning point came in the 6th inning when a two-out bloop single off Michael King opened the door for Chicago. King battled all night but was sent back out for the 7th, where the game slipped away — a key second-guess decision.

Then came the 9th inning.
